"Marcus was an amazing person to have complete a full remodel and finish of our basement. Not only was he polite, professional, and efficient he was more than accommodating to everything we asked for along the way! After that project we had Marcus also do a big project at our business for an addition to our office. Once again, he did an amazing job and at no surprise! I would highly recommend Marcus for any project that you may have a need for!"

"Added a Sunroom and turned an unfinished basement into an apartment. Distinctive Design did a fantastic job. They were more than willing to work with me when I wanted to change the dimensions of a room because they understand things can change. They kept to their promised schedule and were great to work with. I highly recommend Distinctive Design Remodeling."

"Mike and his crew were awesome. I had multiple small projects involving many rooms in my house, and they completed them all in a timely manner. Mike also helped me get a new roof after noting hail damage. I would highly recommend them for any of your remodeling needs."

Customers say: Quick response

"Carlos did an excellent job with our basement bathroom. Our bathroom looks better than I could have imagined. Our house was built in 1950, and the basement was completely unfinished. Now itâ s beautiful and functional. Carlos answered all the questions I had, and explained what he was doing during the whole renovation. We will definitely be hiring for future projects. Carlos was very professional, kind and courteous, and I highly recommend him to anyone doing home improvements."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Kitchens and bathrooms are typically the most expensive rooms to renovate. The high cost is due to several factors, including expensive appliances like ranges, hoods, and refrigerators, as well as costly fixtures. The 'bones' of the room, such as electrical and plumbing, are also expensive to move or replace. Because of the vast amount of prep work, finishing, and specialized labor involved in a relatively small footprint, these projects can cost double or more than a living space remodel. Even when trying to renovate on a budget, kitchens and bathrooms will likely carry a hefty price tag.

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment. A reasonable deposit is typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost, although this can vary by project size and location. This upfront payment helps the contractor cover initial costs like materials, permits, licensing, and hiring subcontractors. The remaining balance is usually billed according to a schedule outlined in your contract, often tied to project milestones or completion dates. Be cautious of contractors who ask for a large deposit of 50% or more, as this could be a red flag for a scam.

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.

Adding an extension or addition to your home costs more than a loft conversion in all but the rarest cases where the home's structural integrity is lacking. Because a home addition requires a new foundation section or significant structural upgrades to handle a cantilevered portion, the cost compared to almost any loft conversion is significantly greater for the same square footage.

Walkout basements cost more than other kinds of basements, and can also increase your risk of leaks as well as a loss of insulation, leading to higher heating and cooling costs. Improperly installed walkout basements may lead to structural issues with your foundation, so ensure you’re working with a contractor who has extensive experience with this kind of basement.
